You guys definitely need a goalie. Biron will probably be available soon enough. The team seems like a patchwork to me. Burke brought in a bunch of overrated tough guys, but seemed to forget about, like, hockey players this past summer. Maybe it's just his Year One of the Rebuild. We've had 4 of those.

Ron Wilson is the coach, he's going to be coaching the US Olympic team that Kane is on though so I'm assuming it's ok, Kane just kept walking apparently.

See I don't think we really need a goalie, I think both of the ones we have are decent, it's the defense I blame. Schenn is awful but at least you can blame most of it on this being only his second season in the league. Beauchemin sucks plain and simple, I feel nauseated every time he touches the puck and Komisarek is decent but he has more penalty minutes than the rest of the team combined! What exactly did we pay for with these two?

I thought Schenn was super awesome? I was really hoping that the NYI signed Beauchemp and Komisarek. Looks like we didn't miss much....eh?

The one he batted in off the boards? Yeah, he's no joke, I am really surprised that he's as good as everyone said and the fact that there was any debate over who to pick first seems like some bad joke. What I want to know is where the fuck Moulson came from. He's by no means a great hockey player, but the dude can score.

No Kadmin (or whatever his name is) is still playing in the minors I think... We had another rookie, Viktor Stalberg who was awesome in the pre season but hasn't panned out so far. Kessel keeps scoring, which is the only bright light so far - he's had 5 goals and 3 assists in 7 games.

Elf_A - dude...I've been there and watched a 3 goal lead just disappear. It sucks. And the worst is that once that first goal cuts it to two, you know it's over. We had 8 minutes left against Boston, up by 3, and we lost.
